Welcome to the show. It’s the only pro wrestling Q&A that matters. You have questions, and I have answers. It’s the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A. I’m Doug, your party host and Guiding Light. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

Natalya will be challenging for the NWA Women’s Championship against champion Kenzie Page at the NWA Crockett Cup 2025 event in May. Thoughts?

This is great for Nattie. First, she did Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport last week, and now she’s working for the NWA and challenging for their Women’s World Championship. This is easily the biggest match of Kenzie Page’s career. Will this lead to more crossovers between the NWA and WWE? I don’t know, but I hope so. I’m very excited to see this happen.

Adam Pearce announced that Gunther has been heavily fined and suspended indefinitely after attacking Michael Cole and Pat McAfee last week on RAW. Thoughts?

After working every week for a couple of years, Gunther is getting a mini-vacation to spend time with his family and rest up. This gives McAfee a chance to prepare for their eventual future match. And when Gunther is ready to return, we’ll pick up where we left off.

Randy Orton handpicked Joe Hendry as his opponent for WrestleMania. Thoughts?

Orton believes in Joe Hendry. I always knew that Randy was a smart dude. Good choice and he gave Hendry the great rub to help build a great career.

Should Nia Jax have had a WrestleMania match?

I don’t know about an actual match as there are limited spots available, but Nia had a great career and the past year has been incredible. She should have been featured in a more prominent role than she was.

Do you think Stokely Hathaway is the right fit to manage FTR during their heel run?

Hathaway doesn’t really make sense to me as the manager for FTR but given the limitation of choices and options available, he’s probably the best person available. Whatever happened to Dan Lambert when you needed him?

Do you want to see Alexa Bliss lead the Wyatt Sicks? Or should WWE go in a different direction with her return?

If Uncle Howdy isn’t to be the leader, then Alexa Bliss, given her history with Bray Wyatt, makes the most sense as the leader of the faction. Do it, WWE.

John Cena versus Lex Luger. Who wins?

With both men in their prime, this would have been an excellent match. Of course, Super Cena would win. But the match would be really fun to see.

Should WWE make WrestleMania in Las Vegas a regular thing? What city do you think should host the big show next?

I can see WWE going back to Vegas every few years. It’s where TKO is based, and it made great money for the company. As for what city should host a future WWE Mania or SummerSlam event, I would love to see Charlotte, NC, play host. I only live two hours away from Charlotte, but that has nothing to do with my pick. Charlotte has a great wrestling history. Atlanta, GA should have a Mania week as well.

Should WWE bring the Bella Twins back for one last run? Or is it time to close the chapter?

Bring the twins back for the WWE Evolution 2 PLE, and see what kind of reaction and pop they get. And then, take it from there. If they get a great response, work them into future plans. And if not, wish them well in future endeavors and move on. Play it by ear and proceed accordingly.

Triple H tells you to go out and recruit some talent to appear on WWE Evolve. Who would you contact?

Sammy Love, Tripp Cautious, Nathan Cross, Angel Angels, and Renegade Outlaw Joe Locklear all come to mind. All excellent talents that WWE/NXT/Evolve should take a very close look at.
